Very nice, chap at work has one in white which is nice..as with all these things there is a fair bit you can do to them too and as we are dealers for Milltek, Eibach, K&N you can imagine...! Youll have a lot of fun with that, I think Chris is on the 1M (??) forum so you may see him on there

Very nice. I saw my first one coming out of Brighton two weekends ago, same colour. I was in the CSL and unfortunately had the missus with me so there was ZERO point in bothering to follow it up the A23 for some fun..
It's not until you see them in the flesh that you realise how mental they are, my wife said what's with the wheels sticking out too far Still never seen another CSL on the road though

Cheers chaps
had an itch for a 1M coupe ever since test driving it at launch. Not normally a fan of forced induction cars, but have to say so far i find the 1M a giggle to drive - a bit Jeckyl & Hyde. Mid-range overtaking function is quite astonishing for a 340bhp car. Had a few moments that 'woke' me up! Not sure if just simply not used to it yet, wrong tyres? maybe a bit weary of it?, but it's nowhere near as planted as the CSL in the corners. |

Don't be fooled by BMW's claims of only 340bhp standard. Mine was measured at 380 and then 415 after a DMS remap. Oh and did I mention the torque was raised to 475lbft too
It was a ballistic missile |

Still seriously temped by one of these. The sensible option over the new M3 really.
